More than just meat: Carcass decomposition shapes trophic identities in a terrestrial vertebrate [PDF]
, 2022 Most food web models fail to account for the full complexity of interactions within a community, particularly where microbes are involved. Carcasses are microbe-rich resources and may represent a common nexus for the macrobiome and microbiome ...

Tracking Spoilage Bacteria in the Tuna Necrobiome [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021 ABSTRACT Like other seafood products, tuna is highly perishable and sensitive to microbial spoilage. Its consumption, whether fresh or canned, can lead to severe food poisoning due to the activity of specific microorganisms, including histamine-producing bacteria.

Death and Decomposition in Aquatic Ecosystems
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Resource subsidies affect nutrient cycling, species interactions, and food webs in ways that influence ecosystem structure and function, but their effects depend on the history, magnitude, and recurrence frequency of the subsidies. In aquatic ecosystems,

Investigating the Post-Mortem Interval (PMI) with Forensically Important Necrobiomes
Indian Journal of Forensic Medicine & Toxicology, 2023 Estimating the post-mortem time interval (PMI) is a crucial component of the forensic investigation and is extremelydifficult for medico-legal experts to do. After death, the succession of microbes in various parts of the human bodyhas enormous potential for predicting PMI.

The ephemeral resource patch concept
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 697-726, June 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Ephemeral resource patches (ERPs) – short lived resources including dung, carrion, temporary pools, rotting vegetation, decaying wood, and fungi – are found throughout every ecosystem. Their short‐lived dynamics greatly enhance ecosystem heterogeneity and have shaped the evolutionary trajectories of a wide range of organisms – from bacteria to

Thanatomicrobiome – State Of The Art And Future Directions
Postępy Mikrobiologii, 2021 Microbiological studies show that there is a possibility of PMI estimation in reference to presence of typical bacteria and fungi on cadaver or in soil beneath.
